Will this power strip accept both 2 & 3 prong US - AC adapters on the strip? Adapters for UK & Europe (into wall socket) will be used with product.

Yes, but if you put too many adapter plugs next to each other they wont fit.

should be fine, however you MUST make sure that both electric receptacles are 3 prong. These will not work with adapters or anything else- 3 prong plugs into 3 prong receptacles and it should be fine

I suggest you speak with the seller about this. The one I got was for US 110V outlets so you would need a converter. Maybe others sell the ones for UK but I do not know. This one is for US.

Yes, this one has a 3-pronged plug that goes into a US 3-prong, but if you have a UK adapter you should be able to use it.

Linda, Personally I would not recommend this power strip for use in England. This power strip is rated for typical US input voltages of approximately 125 volts with a maximum amperage capacity of 15amps. It is not rated for 220-240 volt use. Additionally this outlet strip contains LEDs which may not survive if fed with 220 volts. From one adapter's description page: "...To use this plug adapter, your electric device must be 220-240V or 100v-240v..." Any devices or power blocks you plug in over there need to be capable of handling up to 220 volts. Stay safe and enjoy yourself !

While I'm not an EE, my guess would be yes. It has enough current capacity to handle more than one device. Your trouble may be in finding an adaptor for the power strip to plug into transformer. Looks like a standard two-prong (ungrounded) US outlet to me, but I didn't try to plug any two pronged devices into it. Your Japanese (or whatever) devices presumably have two-pronged connectors, and if they fit a US outlet the scheme should work. Both prongs on my Japanese turntable are the same width, so your two-pronged adaptor would, presumably, need to conform. These days, most all US two-pronged connectoors are differing widths, but this could be overcome with a little judicious filing. While I'm not an EE, my guess would be yes.

I just returned from a month in Italy. Most locations we stayed at had the three hole recepticals but those would accept the two prong adapters. I think it's similar to the US where three holes are grounded two are not. We had no problem using small items like iPhones , iPads, razors, etc. using the two plug adapters. However, we do carry a grounded surge protector just to be safe.

Sadly, this power strip is *not* rated for any but U.S. According to the molded plastic bottom-side of the strip:15A, 125VAC, 60 Hz.Glad you asked - I spend a lot of time in Europe, and have been meaning to verify whether this could handle the 240VAC/50Hz. It cannot.

This is only a plug adapter, it is not a transformer. Therefore, while it will allow you to plug any 3-prong or 2-prong US electrical device into it, it will still give you the power of the host receptacle. If your power strip/surge protector is designed to work with the type of power in the host receptacle, then this will do what you want.

I bought this product for my dad, and he uses it in the United States. I'm not sure if it is a two or three-pronged outlet, but I assume it will work in any standard American outlet.

Nothing new from other responders, but I used mine in the UK on an un-converted 220 adapter, worked fine for my 220 adaptable devices. So yes, It handles UK/Europe/India power, as long as your devices will also do.

(This message is from the manufacturer) Thanks for asking ahead! The power adapter is rated for 100-240V (input), so it will handle the different input voltages world-wide. But note that physically, it's a US-style two-prong (NEMA 1-15) plug - so you'll just need a plug converter to make it fit the different international plug styles. Hope that helps. Thanks again!

I too am confused by the question. In the US, adapters are generally used to adapt two prong female (US) to three prong female (with the ground prong). So, maybe the answer is that you do not need a "adapter" (not really a true converter) at all, as you can plug in either a 3 prong male plug or a 2 prong male plug into this device (if within power limits).

Joe, I use a Brookstone plug adaptor(with interchangeable plugs to work for where ever you are) then plug this into that. The great thing about this powerstrip is that 3 devices + a usb can be plugged in simultaneously. The combination has been invaluable to me travelling in Europe and Australia. Hope this helps.

I've received 1234-0437 with power adapter for Europe (with additional adapter for USA outlets) The box says it can connect to 2 devices with multipoint, however it capable of connecting to 3 devices (don't have any more devices to test it with, but based on icon spacing there is no more room for more devices)... The description from the front of the box is translated on the side to three languages: Spanish, French and German

I see no reason why not. In the past I had no problems using US made powerstrips abroad. Save space by needing just 1 adapter, rather than 4-6.

The one we ordered came with 3 or 4 world adaptors, US and Europe, and Asia. The US plug is two-prong, not three prong so I guess it's not grounded but I use it all through the U.S. and Asia and haven't had any problems.
